How To: Downloading PDF Files from your browser to your device

Links to documents on the POP sites will open result in the document itself being opened and viewable in your web-browser. When this happens it can be hard to understand how to save it to your device (PC or MAC).

In general the process is pretty simple but you need to know where to look. When the document is open and visible in your browser, depending on your system, there is often a ‘Save’ icon that, when clicked, will pop-up a window that allows you to specify where you would like to save the file.

On the Windows platform this icon is often displayed in a toolbar near the top of the window ..

On the Mac OS X platform this icon is often displayed in a ‘pop-up’ menu bar located near the bottom of the document ..

Once that button is clicked you will be asked to specify where you would like to save this file. Once saved you can open the folder where you saved the file and take further actions like emailing to all your close friends 😉
